Night by Elie Wiesel Entry #1

In the first few pages of the book, Eliezer describes his family: he goes to school, he has three sisters, and his parents run a shop.  How is his life similar to yours?  How is it different?

Response Journal Blog

What is a response journal?  Response journals require students to write about what they felt while reading a book, short story, or poem.  The purpose of the response journal is to encourage students to think deeply about the texts that they read and to relate the information to their prior knowledge and experience.  This interaction between reader and text extends the reading experience into "real life" application of information.

What do I do? Each entry that you will make will begin with a prompt.  You must respond substantially to the prompt.  This means that your response should be AT LEAST a lengthy paragraph, perhaps more than one paragraph.  THINK before you write.  Don't worry too much about format - no thesis statement required!
